Pro-ed SPARC-Stimulus Pictures for Assessment, Remediation, and Carryover for Concepts

Ages: 4-10
Grades: PreK-5

These pictures and stimuli progress systematically to teach children more than 90 concepts they need for success in school.

Busy clinicians rely on the Stimulus Pictures for Assessment, Remediation, and Carryover (SPARC) series for:

convenience and portability
systematic progression of activities
tons of practice opportunities
easy measures of progress
loads of pictures and stimuli
use with a variety of treatment approaches
The lessons are organized in five units. Each concept is presented with its opposite or a negative example when no opposite is available. The units are:

Spatial above/below, around/through, between, and more
Attributes large/small, heavy/light, same/different, and more
Quantity more/less, whole/half, pair, and more
Temporal before/after and beginning/end
Comparatives/Superlative stall/taller/tallest, short/shorter/shortest, and more

Each concept is taught in this progression:

Concept Example Picture sten pictures illustrate the target concept(s) and its opposite
Contrast Pictures nine mini-scenes each contain two or three examples of the target concept and its opposite
Concept Scenes one full-page scene contains multiple examples of the target concept and non-examples of the concept. The scene has directions and questions for receptive and expressive practice.
